Hi, I import a csv file (which includes characters from "windows-1250" charset) to postgreSQL database which is in UTF-8. How can i convert windows-1250 to utf-8 charset ?
Try the iconv functions: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.iconv.php $out = iconv('ISO-8859-2', 'UTF-8', $in); This page may be of use, as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1250 "Windows-1250 is *similar* to ISO-8859-2 ..." brian
